CITY COUNCIL

City Council

Augusta is a City of the 2nd Class and has adopted the Mayor/Council/Manager form of government. The Mayor is elected for a four year term and each Council Member serves a four year term. The terms are staggered so that every two years, four council positions (one from each ward) are up for re-election. Serving as a City Council member is a part-time duty. The majority of Council Members have full-time jobs in addition to their City Council duties.

The Augusta City Council meets at 7:00 p.m. on the first and third Monday of each month. The meetings are open to the public and held at the Augusta City Hall located at 113 E. 6th Avenue. Meetings are also broadcast live via Local Government Access Channel 7. Meeting Minutes, Agenda Packets, and Meeting Videos are available online.
